Seems something improper here. Usually people introduce themselves at the very beginning, but I decided to leave this for a dessert!=) My name is Darina, I live in Ukraine and work in a hosting company. I have a daughter, she is about 5 years old. This blog was like a small reflection of what I like and interested in. Recently I found myself being fond of braiding. It is quite popular trend nowadays and I’m glad to be a part of this wave.

Previously I shared photos of celebrities’ hairstyles with you. But today I would like to introduce my beautiful girls-colleagues, whom I spent so many shifts together with. And was glad to train my hands on their heads, hope it wasn’t like a torture for them. So, all words are left behind, let’s view the pics, I’m waiting for your critics.)))

Sorry for such a delayed post. I have just lost myself for several weeks. But today i want to share with you some interesting stuff about braiding techniques.

As you may have already noticed, braids are everywhere nowadays, because they make you look much more womanlike and elegant. And it is a good way to make you look different everyday. Cause each hairstyle has its own peculiarities and can emphasize your natural beauty, or highlight one of many facial or even features of character.

Many beauty specialists all over the world agree that braiding is on the top currently. It has become a “fashionable accessorize” for most women. Even celebrities prefer some simple braiding hairstyles for “red carpet” parties to extravagant evening ones.

Everyone knows that having a head full of healthy, sleek, beautiful hair is your ticket to making heads turn. Nothing complements a person’s appearance more than hair that is well taken care of and styled in the hottest fashion. But how can you make a good impression when more often than not you’re having a bad hair day?

The first question is “How Often Do You Really Need to Shampoo?”

Well everyone has its own hair structure. Generally we need to wash hair as infrequently as necessary to retain moisture.If your hair is oily then it requires moisturizing every day or every other day, if it is dry it is enough to wash it two times per week. Much depends on shampoo and conditioner we use. They need to be picked according to type of your hair. And don’t forget to visit a barber regularly, as hair to be long and healthy should be cut not later than one time in 2 months.

The second question is “Is there a special way to take care of dyed hair?”

The chemistry that transforms hair from a mousy brown to a deep chocolate brunette, or from a graying blond to a golden honey, may seem like magic. In truth, it’s a torture test that leaves hair dry, dull, and rough.

If you are dyed hair owner you need to take care of your hair ten times better.

Some useful tips can be found below:

Think twice about becoming a redhead. Red dye’s large-size molecules leach out more quickly than those of any other hue. Whatever color you choose, stay within a few tones of your natural shade: Going from brunette to blond, say, requires bleaching, which makes hair especially porous and prone to color fade.

Avoid excessive rinsing in the shower: once you’ve shampooed and conditioned, don’t tilt your head back and let the water just run over it for several minutes. And if you like to wake up under the faucet in the morning, try to spare your hair.

Stick to lukewarm or cooler- heat makes dye leach faster: the hotter the water is, the quicker the color loss.

Use a color-protecting shampoo. They’re specifically formulated to be both gentle and protective.

Wash your hair less frequently. Refresh on your off days by flipping hair over and spraying a dry shampoo at the roots to soak up oil.

Condition every time you shampoo, even if you have fine hair. You really want to make sure you condition the longest part of your hair. The tips can be years old and have the most damage, whereas the roots are only a couple of months old.

And to sum up: your hair can add to your overall look instantly. Keeping it in healthy condition is the most important thing you can do to help it look and feel fabulous.Therefore be aware of using correct brush, good water, appropriate shampoo and conditioner and don’t forget about healthy way of life and enough time to sleep.
